After a very close call with a huge tiger shark, this diver is very lucky to still have his leg! Although it is still unknown where this video takes place, it is rumored to have taken place at a popular shark diving location in the Bahamas.

Some operators contend that these types of expeditions, though controversial, help dispel perceptions that sharks are savage killers. But critics counter that operators who allow novice divers to swim freely with baited top-level predators are irresponsible.

These Tiger sharks can measure up to 15 feet and weigh almost 1500 pounds. Diving with these sharks unprotected while wearing all black dive gear (Making you look even more like a delicious seal) and shoving a camera with a bright flash in their face is not recommended.
